The main problem with it is that there isn't enough users

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

MODERATORS
A few topics that can not be discussed on Lemmy unless you agree with the hive mind:
Israel/Palestine
Crypto
Antidepressants
The Death Penalty
Literally anything related to Elon Musk
Hollywood using diversity to hide low quality writing
Modern cars/city infrastructure
(This is not a complete list.)
Hollywood using diversity to hide low quality writing
This is an allowed topic on [email protected], as long as it is part of a discussion thread related to a specific film or show. Feel free to create a thread if the film or show you want to discuss doesn't have one yet.
Don’t forget Apple. Even if you don’t own any Apple products, you have to talk shit about Apple products and anyone who uses them or you’ll lose your Lemmy card. Talking positively about Apple or their products is an immediate downvote and owning one of their products is treason.

The niche topics are expanding on the fediverse but it’s not quite there yet.
The general topics on Reddit are full of uninteresting posts and comments. Quality community members have definitely left.
I can’t tell if you think it’s an echo chamber because there are too many like-minded people here, or if your opinions generally fall apart under scrutiny. You may want to evaluate this.
You might want to try Hexbear or The_donald if your goal is to discuss "strong president".
bye!
Yeah Lemmy is extremely self-righteous. Though I think they were worse in the early days.
haha never, here you can breath a fresh air of people and freedom, in reddit-twitter you have the freedom that a company "gives" to you. I am in both, but I am more proud to be here than to be on bruhddit.
Agreed, but(t) fuck Spez.
